“Animals do have a voice. If you ignore their suffering, I will remind you of it. If you don't understand them, I will translate. If you don't hear them, I will be their voice. You may silence them but you cannot silence me as long as I live.” ~ Anita Mahdessian (C

No I thought I would save my legs for today because I'm moving furniture etc. I got a job as a registered nurse at Tamworth Hospital so I'll be living there for a year. Going to build a house at some point, live in it for a while then get some tenants in it and will probably move back here or to Sydney. That's the plan anyway. There's a few decent gyms in Tamworth. My parents paid for the first three months membership as a Christmas present.

I'm back in my home town now. I moved here yesterday and I'm still getting myself set up. It feels kinda strange to be back after 7 years of living out of home down in Newcastle. I moved there when I was 19 and now I'm almost 26. Not that I hadn't been back in that time, but to be actually living here again feels a bit surreal. Not sure how long I'll be here. It might just be a year and then I'll see where my job takes me. It's a nice town and still feels like home. Everything here just feels nicer I guess. Less dirty, less noisy, less busy etc.. Aaanyway... I start work next Monday. Today I went and activated the gym membership I got for Christmas.

Might have to start using the plates that are in pounds in the next cycle. The gear they have at this gym is pretty old school and awesome, but the newer kilo plates they have are octagonal. Which idiot thought it would be a good idea to make plates in that shape? Will have to do some converting of weights, but will be fine.
